The story of our family and God's grace on this earthly journey when things do indeed change "in the blink of an eye."

Smith Lake

Each summer we take a week long trip with my parents and my sister's family to beautiful Smith Lake. My parent's rent a house and a boat and when that is combined with 7 grandchildren, this is what happens...

Grey was ready to go "boating" (as he called it) from the moment we got there. If the boat was leaving the dock, he was on it!

It didn't matter if we were on the dock...

or on the boat...

(Don't ask, it's just Grey he's like this all the time)

or tubing...

(yep, he's doin' the sprinkler)

(show off)

Everyone had a great time. The kids were full on energy all week long. We played hard and fell exhausted into our beds each night. It was a good kind of tired though, the kind of tired you feel content with after putting everything you have into the day. It's knowing you put everything you had to give that day into these guys...

and the baby sister...

There is much more to share including proof that Cooper was thrown off the tube this year, but that's all for now. Thanks for checking in on us.
